Beside him, a beautifully wrapped present and a heartfelt card addressed to his younger step-sister, Jessica. As the camera pans over, Rick's voice fills the air, singing softly, his thoughts drifting towards Jessica. Today is her 19th birthday, he muses, she's blossomed into a stunning young woman.
